"Young" Athlone Still Catching Up With Galway

Dermot Lennon watched his side succumb to an unbeaten Galway United on Friday.

Galway United are a bit bigger and a bit better according Athlone Town manager, Dermot Lennon.

The league leaders ran out 3-1 winners in Westmeath on Friday night after Frantz Pierrot had given the midlanders the lead in the first half.

Galway equalised and pulled ahead through goals from David Hurley, who scored two, and Stephen Walsh.

That result leaves Athlone sitting fifth with three wins, three losses and a draw.

Lennon says his team is still gaining experience:
